About this map

French Creek winds through the northeast corner of this Mercer County landscape, where the Erie-Lackawanna railroad follows the water's edge past the settlement of Carlton. The area is defined by its rural character and the distinct valleys of Mill Creek and North Deer Creek. To the southwest, the expansive Lake Wilhelm and Sandy Lake dominate the terrain, providing a stark contrast to the surrounding forested uplands.

Genealogists will find significant local history in the cluster of country churches and burial grounds, including Deer Creek Ch, New Lebanon Ch, and the Boyd Cem. The small village of New Lebanon serves as a central point for the surrounding farmstead network, while 1970s photorevisions highlight the development of the larger water bodies and updated road classifications near New Vernon and Milledgeville.
